My apologies for the limited answer choices. An author's interpretation of a fact typically shows their point of view or perspective on the matter.
The correct answer is: point of view.
An author's interpretation of a fact shows their point of view. To arrive at this answer, we can break down the question and analyze the options:
- "Entertainment" is not the correct answer because an author's interpretation of a fact is not primarily meant to entertain the reader. While reading an author's interpretation can be interesting or engaging, the main purpose is to convey their perspective on the fact.
- "An opinion" is not the correct answer either because a fact is something that is objectively true and can be supported by evidence. An author's interpretation of a fact is more about how they understand and present the information rather than their personal opinion.
- "An argument" is not the correct answer as well because an argument usually involves stating a claim and providing reasons or evidence to support it. While an author's interpretation may include arguments to support their point of view, the interpretation itself is not the same as an argument.
By process of elimination, the correct answer is "point of view." An author's interpretation of a fact reflects their unique perspective and how they perceive and understand that particular fact.
